You're very welcome Strike123. I pretty much drew the same conclusions as you. Very detailed insight to RR's financial position and anticipated financial position going into 2023 then 2024 using relatively conservative numbers. The article is useful to understand just what RR is about and praise for the author. This information is readily available to all but not JP Morgan it seems.

Apologies for those that have already read this article by Seeking Alpha which provides some important information...

It almost certainly is down to JPM Badland. As we know, same thing happened last time. They know the SP will rise again so it's a case of rinse & repeat. They're doing their job earning their clients increased wealth on the back of RR and possibly others. If it works once it may work twice then three times and so on. RR are pretty useless at RNS's particularly positive ones but that's what I believe we need to attract investor confidence.

Sorry to hear that Lyndon. Hope she's OK. If there's one thing more important than investments, it's peoples health & wellness.

They did the same with Royal Mail and their shares slumped. JP Morgan once again the architect of our SP downfall. No end to their pessimism.

Just been reading an article by the respected Tom Stevenson of Fidelity International... apparently, there have been 25 rally years out of 30 on the run up to Xmas & New Year. Apparently also, there is some method behind this phenomenon. The question is, with everything that has happened in the world, will we get one this year? I'm not talking RR specific here but more generally speaking if you like (but not excluding RR of course) as I expect many posters on this board have more than just one stock interest. I suppose the question is, time to invest or time to divest? For the record I'm holding onto RR as it's my only growth stock in my ISA. The others are income payers if you know what I mean?

RR's share price has the potential to rocket even without a dividend plan that attracts institutional investors including pension schemes and the like. But, it needs to RNS any good news to give investors the confidence to err well, invest. Hoping it's rather like a bus, you wait ages and 3 come at once!

Hi STOCKBROKER, just to let you know that I was being facetious. Like you, I hate shorters and believe the practice should be outlawed. I really believe JP Morgan released their broker update on RR so that the SP would be negatively impacted. I don't think that should be allowed. (I said this at the time)

Feeling really sad for the shorters.

Yes, this is 100% RNS worthy and that's what's needed otherwise it'll be buy on the rumour & sell on the news! There's still time!

Cheers MrMath, really appreciate your reply. Thumbs up. I'm looking to sell some of my poor performing stock possibly after any Santa rally s to create cash which is why I was so interested to learn what you've done. I'm similar to you if truth be told and play the market much more cautiously these days. Looking to increase my holding in LGEN over the next 2years as an income play and as part of my retirement strategy. Cheers again and good luck.

MrMath, good post. Interesting to hear that you've reduced your cash position due to (I guess) the negative impact of inflation. May I ask where you deposited the cash? More LGEN shares perhaps?

Yep, I agree Whateva. I think I've seen sufficient recently to believe the SP (and of course our investment) will climb if not soar on any future good news coming out of China. Perhaps it will deliver after all the returns I expected when first buying in. Time will tell of course, it always does!

Cheers Lyndon69, makes perfect sense. Maybe energy costs aren't the headwinds perhaps first thought. Again, good news.

Just noticed Warren & Panos both bought additional shares a few days ago at £0.9085p. Did anyone notice or have I missed the posts? Always a good sign to see Director deals me thinks!

Hi sophieben, not at all. I know you're a LTH yourself so all's fine n dandy. Thumbs up. I think you're a most worthwhile poster on this board.
